EDCF Elects New Board and Extends President’s Mandate

X

The European Digital Cinema Forum
recently held its bi-annual elections for Board membership for the coming two
year period. There are several new Board members, and the overall Board covers
a very wide range of the cinema business and across European countries.

This breadth is a unique strength of the
EDCF and is important for a membership-based group so that we can continue to
take into account all of our members’ interests and provide real value to the
industry as a whole.

In a very competitive election, members
voted the following people onto the Board:

Angelo d’Alessio – Venice film Festival,
Italy

Oleg Berezin – Neva Film, Russia

Tom Bert – Barco, Belgium

Tammo Buhren – ZweiB, Germany

David Hancock – IHS Markit, UK

Dave Hodgkinson – Universal Studios, UK

Cathy Huis in t’veld Esser – Gofilex,
Netherlands

Matt Jahans – Harkness Screens, UK

Julian Pinn – Julian Pinn Ltd., UK

Jan Runge – ICTA, Germany

Patrick von Sychowski – Celluloid Junkie,
UK

Jack Watts – Deluxe Technicolor Digital
Cinema

The Board’s first action was to renew
the mandate of current President David Hancock, which was unopposed.

David Hancock comments “I would like to
thank everyone who stood as a Board member in these elections, the most
competitive I can remember. I was impressed by the range and industry stature
of the candidates and am heartened by that. It is a very good sign for the EDCF’s
future that our membership is so active.

I would like to thank the last Board for
their hard work over the past two years, which has seen the EDCF
re-energised and imbued with a new sense
of purpose. I also wish to thank those that have stood down from the Board for
their longstanding commitment and service to the EDCF and wish them good luck
in their continuing ventures”.

The EDCF is currently working on a range of
projects, amongst which are the continued European rollout of the SMPTE-DCP, a
buyer’s guide to Laser Projection, and a Best Practice Guide to Image and Audio
in Cinemas.

The 3rd Annual EDCF Convention
will take place in Sweden on November 21st & 22nd. If you are

About European Digital Cinema Forum:The EDCF is a not-for-profit voluntary organisation that aims to act as a "Forum" to discuss key issues surrounding Digital Cinema in Europe. The purpose of EDCF is to provide a basis of common understanding across all European territories of the business and technical matters of digital cinema. We were established in 2000, before the widespread rollout of digital cinema technology, in order to accompany the rollout and minimise any impact on European cinema, as well as putting forward a European point of view of cinema technology within global standards organisations. Our work has now widened to include all technologies in cinema. Membership is open to any organisation or individual with a genuine interest in furthering the knowledge and understanding of digital cinema.European Digital Cinema Forum Directory pageEuropean Digital Cinema Forum Web Site
